No, at 1000+ you shouldn't have problems, almost no matter what database/data you're using. You may start getting slowdowns at 100,000+ users if you have a lot of data and probably 500,000+ if you have the reasonable data usually required.
Anyway, using a different database for each user would get you there faster - you'd not only load the database system but the filesystem as well with requests to multiple directories.
Just my 2c.

Hi, I am about to make a homepage where people can sign up. It is then possible for the user to enter a lot of different data about them self. Is it normal to make a database for each user or should I make one big one? If I make a big one am I going to get problems if I has 1000+ users and everybody enters a lot of data? Thanks, Morten
